Prayers to St Joseph for a peaceful death for Troy Davis.

Can't find word about the Supreme Court appeal.

 

[BeanE]

7:00pm now. Have not yet heard from the Supreme Court, but Troy is likely being executed now.

I am wishing so hard my soul is aching that the wardens will not go through with it. I never would, never. damn the bread lines.

CNN saying Supreme Court is considering the appeal...

 

[doubt]

obama refuses to weigh in on debate according to 11alive.

wow.

They just said on HLN that the execution may have been delayed to wait on an answer from the Supreme Court. Not sure if it is true, and it isn't a stay. But hoping.

 

[BeanE]

A stay! Execution is stayed!

Thank you, God. Thank you.

 

[doubt]

fella at this link http://www.livestream.com/democracynow just now says he has not been executed but NO stay....

 

[BeanE]

Confirmation Troy has NOT been executed. Reporters trying to get confirmation of the stay.

No evidence of stay at this time.

Reporters having a hard time hearing in their earpieces.

 

[2goldfish]

oh for heaven's sake they better damn commute! this is sickening to keep him hanging!! but there is a chance!

 

[HRCODEPINK]

I'm not getting excite yet. The live feed said the lawyers are saying no stay yet. May just be a delay while the SCOTUS decides. I sure wish I knew for sure.
